It was already the twelfth day of February, and He Shen thought that the moonlight at night should be good, so he wanted to invite Hongli to enjoy the moon together.

Hongli naturally readily agreed to Heshen's invitation.

The dinner was served on the water pavilion of Bolan Pavilion, which is surrounded by water on all sides. The winding bridge deck connects the two banks, the left and right corridors are connected, and the green willows hang down on both sides of the bank.

With picturesque scenery, exquisite dishes, fine wines, and beautiful women like flowers, Hongli only thinks that life is like this, what more can he ask for.

After dinner, watching the bright moon in the sky, the clear brilliance spread.Feeling the gentle breeze makes people feel refreshed.

Hongli laughed and said, "Zhi Zhai, why not play the last round?"

He Shen said with a slight smile: "Fourth Master will bully others, he knows that my chess skills are not as good as Fourth Master's, and he always likes to drag me to play chess."

Hongli didn't want to let He Shen go, and seeing him racking his brains, he had a special style.

Wu Shulai hurriedly set up the chessboard, and Hongli and Heshen played a game with one black and one white.

After all, Hongli has a lot more experience than Heshen. At the beginning, Heshen was evenly matched, but after half an hour, Heshen paled in comparison.

Hongli picked up a chess piece and said with a smile, "Zhizhai is in danger."

He Shen curled his lips and gave Hongli a displeased look.

Hongli didn't want to push people too far, so he got up and said, "It's late, let's go back. I'll take you to see other scenery of West Lake tomorrow.

Only then did He Shen feel happy.Walking along the path among the flowers with Hongli, smelling the fragrance of flowers, watching the bright moon, accompanied by his beloved, He Shen just felt fascinated.

Hongli was also deeply intoxicated.He stretched out his hand and grabbed He Shen's fingers.

He Shen struggled a little, saw that the guards and eunuchs around him were all far away, and quietly held Ren Hongli's hand, and stopped struggling.

In the next few days, Hongli accompanied He Shen to enjoy the beautiful scenery of West Lake and eat all the delicacies of Hangzhou.He Shen just felt that the days passed by so fast, and wished that time could stop.

On February [-]th, Hongli had another book to read.He Shen went for a walk in the garden alone.

After wandering around for a while, He Shen was a little tired.He was about to go back to have lunch with Fourth Master, but heard He San said that Fourth Master had urgent matters to deal with, so he went back to the palace.He Shen felt bored, so he came to the study to read.

The study here is very elegantly tidied up, and He Shen is leaning on the carved sandalwood chair in front of the window, from which he can just see the clear pool water outside.

The sun shines in through the gauze curtain by the window, making it warm and warm, and with the unique warm wind in spring, it makes people extremely comfortable.

He Shen took a storybook and read it carefully. The clichéd plots of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies are good for leisure.

He Shen is leisurely and carefree here, but he doesn't know that the palace will soon be turned upside down.

In the Hangzhou palace, Empress Ulanara is leaning halfway on the exquisite brocade, looking at the slightly shaking willow branches outside the window, holding a cup of tea in her well-maintained hands, and using the cup lid to shake the tea leaves inside , sighed lightly, as if he had infinite thoughts.

The finest ambergris was burning in the censer next to it, which was specially rewarded by the emperor, and the other concubines never had the chance to see it.

"Your Majesty," Nanny Li, who is the most loyal to the Ulanara family, came in with the best ginseng soup, "Your Majesty, I didn't rest well yesterday, so drink some ginseng soup to nourish your spirit."

Ulanara sat up lazily, took the small white jade bowl, but only took a sip, then put it on the table next to it, and sighed softly again.

Seeing that her complexion was not good, Li Momo couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with your mother? Do you want to summon the imperial physician?"

Ulanara sighed faintly: "The emperor has not returned to the palace for several days. I seem to have heard people whispering, saying that the emperor must have gone to find a confidante when he came to this picturesque south of the Yangtze River."

Gritting her teeth, Wulanara said again: "Sister, tell me, will the emperor really go to those unclean places?"

Mother Li was startled, and hurriedly sent all the maids out of the bedroom, then lowered her voice and said, "Your Majesty, you can't talk nonsense. If one is not good, it will anger the emperor. "

"When has this palace ever angered the emperor? The emperor likes Huixian, a cowardly and charming concubine like Lingfei. I can't learn that kind of pretentiousness." Ulanara's mouth was full Is disdainful.She comes from a noble background and has a straightforward personality. It is impossible for her to be dependent on the emperor's little bird.

Nanny Li served Ulanara since she was a child, and later followed her into the palace. She is Ulanara's first confidant and the only person who treats her well in the cold palace.

At this time, after hearing what the queen said, Nanny Li could only persuade: "Your Majesty, the emperor's flirtatiousness is well known in the world, and he will leave Hangzhou Mansion in only three to five days, so the empress will turn a blind eye and close her eyes." Only eyes."

On weekdays, Ulanara would still be able to listen to Madam Li's words, but since hearing that the emperor might go to Huajie Liuxiang, Ulanara couldn't sit still.

"My palace is the empress, and it should be my duty to advise the emperor." A sneer appeared on the corner of Wulanara's mouth, "If the emperor is really as rumored and violates the way of being a king, this palace will definitely advise."

"Your Majesty..." Mother Li was in a hurry when she heard the words, the empress's empress was too straightforward, what if she offended the emperor?

Seeing Nanny Li's appearance, Wulanara couldn't help feeling soft in her heart: "It's okay, Nanny, it's just that this palace angered the emperor, and the queen mother is here, right?"

In fact, Ulanara is also helpless. Although she is a queen in the palace and has the most honorable status, she has never been liked by the emperor.As for matters concerning the Six Palaces, the emperor entrusted Concubine Ling to handle them, and she, the empress, was simply a decoration.

In order to gain a foothold in the palace, she had to do more filial piety in front of the queen mother, and finally the queen mother liked him.

She didn't want to anger the emperor, but the queen mother kept telling her that she was the queen, she wanted to persuade the emperor, and she couldn't let the emperor be indulging in beauty.

The emperor has never returned to the palace, what's the point?

So she had to be persuaded, otherwise, she would not be liked by the emperor, and even the queen mother gave up on her, what should she do?What should her thirteenth elder brother do?

The old people who lived in the mansion back then, Empress Xiaoxian and Imperial Concubine Huixian, have all gone. Although she has the position of empress, she is overwhelmed by a concubine Ling who was born as a slave.There is no hatred in my heart.The only way to survive is to follow in the footsteps of the Queen Mother.
